After birthday hangover had aquick look and found a few problem, R1 spindle 22 mm wheel 25mm, BUT no 22x47x12mm bearings exist anywhere in the world apparently
so either use a standard 20mm bearing and turn the spindle down or use Hon*a wheel bearings that are 22x47x14 and loose the extra 2mm in spacers?
ARSE, I suppose my vain hope that there would be a standard bearing swop was a bit much to ask for

Mark Triumph thundebird sport.... the rears a bit skinny, so if i can make it line up and fit ill get a 5.5 inch rim nailed on?..the rear is fine spindle size and the chain run is nearly there....front disc alignment loks a bit of a problem

Can't you use the triumph spindle and have the ends altered to suit your forks? Cheers SRR

plan B, get a spare r1 spindle and fit 20mm standard bearings which I have, then turn the spindle down from 22 to 20mm, the wall thickness of the spindle is 5mm so it will go down to 4mm. which is thick enough I reckon

Or put bigger holed bearings in with the spacer in the middle with sleees on each end through the bearings then the spindle through that. Cheers SRR

Why the string down centre of tyre? Best tool for lining the wheel up, a bit of string tied to the steering stem and the rear shock and a mark 1 eyeball...... Stand back and you can see if it all lines up
